~TARTUFFE~

A Comedy by Moliere

~Moliere blends hilarious farce with brilliant social satire to create a comic masterpiece. Tartuffe, a scoundrel posing as a saint, uses religious devotion as a mask for the lust in his heart. Will the impostor be discovered before he ruins the family on whom he is preying?

"One of the theatre's most brilliant satires on hypocrisy!"
